FABOOH – \ˈfab-ü\

Fabooh is an optimized C++ template based peripheral framework for the msp430 microcontroller. It creates very small and efficient code while still providing a flexible framework similar to what you might expect to find with something like the Arduino API. It makes liberal use of inline msp430-gcc assembler code to produce optimized code that is sometimes smaller than generic ‘C’ code.

Example

A typical blink program looks something like this:

#include <fabooh.h>
#include <main.h>

inline void setup() {
  RED_LED::pinMode(OUTPUT);
  GREEN_LED::pinMode(OUTPUT);
  PUSH2::pinMode(INPUT_PULLUP);

  GREEN_LED::low();
  RED_LED::high();
}

void loop() {
  // block loop if user holds down the button
  if ( !PUSH2::read() ) {
    do {
      delay_msecs(10); // debounce switch
    } while(!PUSH2::read());
  }

  delay_msecs(100);
  RED_LED::toggle();
  GREEN_LED::toggle();
}

This results in very efficient code that uses only 120 bytes of flash, and no DATA or BSS space.

Frequency Counter using Launchpad & Nokia 5110 LCD by oPossum

Frequency Counter using Launchpad & Nokia 5110 LCD

 

This is a simple frequency counter with a range of 1 Hz to 16 MHz. It uses the 32 kHz watch crystal so the accuracy is good enough for many applications. Gate time is automatically set to 250 ms or 1 second.

There is no signal conditioning (front end), so it is limited to 3V logic levels signals only! It is intended to be used with digital circuits like another MSP430 or 74HCxx circuits. It is not a substitute for a proper commercial frequency counter.

Poundbury is an experimental new town or urban extension on the outskirts of Dorchester in the county of Dorset, England.

The development is built on land owned by the Duchy of Cornwall. It is built according to the principles of Prince Charles, who is known for holding strong views challenging the post-war trends in town planning that were suburban in character.

Using android mobile to control arduino

 Bigger Bigger Smaller Smaller Reset Reset

Here is my android controlled arduino project. A simple app sends data through SPP over bluetooth and switches an LED on and off.

The circuit is just a bluetooth module, arduino UNO, LED, resistor and some wires.

The LED can be switched on using buttons as well as voice activation (anything that contains the word ‘on’,’off’ or ‘blink’ – so saying ‘turn the LED on’ works as well as just uttering ‘on’).
I created the app using MIT app inventor and this project was created pretty much only to show how easy it is to write custom apps using the tool and interface with microcotrollers in this manner. One could use MIT app inventor to add more more features, such as using accelerometer or GPS data to control the LED, switching the state using text messages, web communication, not only send but also receive data, etc.
…well the point is – MIT app inventor is pretty cool and you should check it out

Energia Build Process

Overview

A number of things have to happen for your Energia code to get onto the LaunchPad board. First, the Energia environment performs some small transformations to make sure that the code is correct C or C++ (two common programming languages). It then gets passed to a compiler (MSPGCC),

Testing individual segments of a 7 Segment display

Testing individual segments of a 7 Segment display

Today I took one 7 segment display from my college lab. While I’ve used these before, I saw this after a long time. Now I was trying to remember how to operate it. The one that I got was common cathode type. So in this cathode is common. Now cathode is the negative terminal of 7 segment display and needs to be grounded. So logically if you want any segment to glow you need to supply Vcc. But 7 segment display is nothing more than a group of led’s arranged in specific order and of particular shape. So like any ordinary led’s it will definitely burn if the current exceeds the rated value. That is why we normally use current limiting resistors. But testing using that set up is tedious. So we’ll learn how to test the segments using a multimeter.

One more thing, the printed code on seven segment display will have a CC mark for common cathode and A for common anode.
7segLed

Above figure shows both the variants of 7 segment displays i.e the common anode and common cathode.

Steps involved in testing:

Debounce Code – one post to rule them all

November 9, 2010 by 32 Comments

Last month we asked you to send in your debounce code. You didn’t disappoint and it’s time to share the code received. There were some guideline for sending in code so if you don’t see yours here, it probably didn’t follow the rules, sorry. We also tried to weed out code that using delay loops for debounce. These tend to be a poor way to handle inputs because they monopolize the processor.

Communicating between a Launchpad and another MSP430 chip

The Launchpad comes with an extra MSP430 chip, the MSP430G2452. In this project we will finally get to play with it, since we want to extend the capabilities of our Launchpad to control more LEDs.

First we will build the 14 pin PWM circuit from the Serial PWM project. We do it on a solderless breadboard as shown in the photo below:

Capacitive touch sensor with MSP430 Launchpad

Capacitive touch sensor with MSP430 Launchpad

I found this interesting article on making a capacitative touch sensor with graphite drawings here, and I wanted to modify it for the MSP430g2331.

The first thing I had to change was the readCapacitative() function. I only allow use of the P1.x pins, and I changed the input from pin number to the x in P1.x, to match the layout of the MSP430 registers.

Here is my modified readCapacitative function:

    // readCapacitivePin
//  Input: x in P1.x pin name 
//  Output: A number expressing
//          how much capacitance is on the pin
//  When you touch the pin, or whatever you have
//  attached to it, the number will get higher
//  In order for this to work now,
// The pin should have a 1+Megaohm resistor pulling
//  it up to +5v.
uint8_t readCapacitivePin(int pinToMeasure){
  // This is how you declare a variable which
  //  will hold the PORT, PIN, and DDR registers
  //  on an AVR
  volatile uint8_t* port;
  volatile uint8_t* ddr;
  volatile uint8_t* pin;
  // Here we translate the input pin number from
  //  Arduino pin number to the AVR PORT, PIN, DDR,
  //  and which bit of those registers we care about.
  byte bitmask;

    port = (uint8_t*) &P1OUT;
    ddr = (uint8_t*) &P1DIR;
    bitmask = 1 << pinToMeasure;
    pin = (uint8_t*) &P1IN;

  // Discharge the pin first by setting it low and output
  *port &= ~(bitmask);
  *ddr  |= bitmask;
  delay(1);
  // Make the pin an input WITHOUT the internal pull-up on
  *ddr &= ~(bitmask);
  // Now see how long the pin to get pulled up
  int cycles = 16000;
  for(int i = 0; i < cycles; i++){
    if (*pin & bitmask){
      cycles = i;
      break;
    }
  }
  // Discharge the pin again by setting it low and output
  //  It's important to leave the pins low if you want to 
  //  be able to touch more than 1 sensor at a time - if
  //  the sensor is left pulled high, when you touch
  //  two sensors, your body will transfer the charge between
  //  sensors.
  *port &= ~(bitmask);
  *ddr  |= bitmask;

  return cycles;
}

The important part is changing PORTD, DDRD and PIND to the port names for the MSP430. I also changed the output pin to P1.0 (the red LED). I wanted to produce a speaker tone instead of lighting an LED, but the tone library was way too much to include with this program – this chip only has 2K RAM.

Now I can get the light to turn on by touching the pin end of the resistor directly, but for some reason I haven’t had any luck with a pencil drawing yet. Strangely, it seems to work best when I touch the +5V end with one hand and the pin end with the other. Also very strangely, I had to set the serial monitor to 4800 baud to see proper output.

More info on the MSP430g2231 can be found here, and the IDE I am using, Energia, can be found here.

My 2nd BoosterPack!

Basically, the only real capacitive touch experience I have, is with my Android phone and tablet PC. That all changed today when I received the Capacitive Touch BoosterPack and another MSP430 LaunchPad from a Good Samaritan by the name of Drew Fustini.

Ambient Backscatter – Wireless power and communication with no batteries

Ambient Backscatter – Wireless power and communication with no batteries

Ambient Backscatter transforms existing wireless signals into both a source of power and a communication medium. It enables two battery-free devices to communicate by backscattering existing wireless signals. Backscatter communication is orders of magnitude more power-efficient than traditional radio communication. Further, since it leverages the ambient RF signals that are already around us, it does not require a dedicated power infrastructure as in RFID.

Overview

In this project, you will write new firmware for an HP 20b calculator. This is an example of embedded programming: coding software for something that does not, and should not, appear to be a computer in the traditional sense, yet is one at its core. The plummeting cost of integrated circuits has made such embedded systems ubiquitous, and this trend promises to continue. The challenges of designing such systems run the gamut from traditional electrical issues such as sensor noise and power consumption all the way to high-level computer science problems such as efficient algorithm design to human factors engineering. You will experience all of these, and learn some standard solutions, while performing this project.
